About

Barbara Porto, Haines City, FL

I am a self taught artist/crafter.  I enjoy painting, photography, alterted art, clay, t shirt designs, working with natural pieces, wire jewelry, making greeting cards, home decor.

I have received awards for photography and paintings and have sold many greeting cards.

I have sold items online with Etsy and Ebay which I enjoy doing.  I would like to have a strong online business and am always working towards that.

We moved from NYS to FL about 6 years ago and enjoy the area very much.  As weird as it might seem I do miss a good blizzard every now and then.  We haven't experienced any hurricanes yet, and hope we don't.   The house we bought was previously damaged due to a hurricane.  No matter where you live, there's always something, therefore, as you know, you have to deal with it.
